IS IT SAFE TO MOUNT TELEVISIONS, ELECTRONICS OR OTHER VALUABLE ITEMS ABOVE MY FIREPLACE?

Vermont Castings does not recommend installing any electronic device above a fireplace. Heat rising from the unit can damage sensitive electronic components found in televisions, computer screens, speakers, etc. as well as some artwork and home décor. Our products are tested for clearance to combustible finishing materials such as drywall and mantel surfaces, but are not tested specifically for use near other household electronics and decorative items.
